This is up to the firmware implementation, not the spec. Arguably that is a flaw in the ratified spec.

Apple will be one such company that falls under this. So? How is supporting secure boot making the situation worse for fedora in thus cases? The hardware vendors will not go "oh god fedora does not run so we will ship without secureboot" ... that wont happen (otherwise we wouldn't have this discussion). You all fail to explain that point (just dodge the question) so I am not sure this discussion makes any sense ... -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
